    Story Behind the Song
    On Grand and Ninth, across from the Embassy Hotel there is a cozy little watering hole. Norma Desmond's double walked in every evening for her one drink and close-up.

    She wore amazing outfits, velvet gown, hat with feathers, fur lined coat and never said anything we could hear. She had her exact spot ready for her when she arrived. All conversation stopped when she came and when it began again, it was all on the same line. Who was she? Was she once famous? She must have been beautiful, not that she wasn't now, in her ancient, dusty way.

    Lyrics
    A7
    Plush Lush
    set my watch by your arrival
    you ain't got no rival
    in your feather boa make you look like a queen

    Plush Lush
    drinking in the good life
    you can't make a good wife
    Channel, Black Velvet, Easter Bonnet
    and you're making the scene

    C
    Dark little dungeons
    It's Fante's LA
    G
    Nothing's changed in 90 years
    on 9th and Grand but quakes and tears
    F
    Angels Flight's back now, and Underground
    C
    Memories of boxers are jogged as you walk by
    take on all attention
    F
    and your drink is waiting for you
    in your place by the bar
    G
    maybe, baby, once was a star

    Plush Lush
    enigmatic vintage
    planting quite a visage
    hope that want you wanted
    s'here in my memories

    Plush Lush
    never shared her story
    only left her shadow
    whispers and surmising
    sparked the talk through the night
